Just a little reminder that CG comics Nightshade the Merry Widow and Storm Over Whoomera - written and rendered by Ed Kline with a little scripting help from me ("the comma goes there, Ed") - are currently on hiatus until the first week of 2018, so this might be a good time to do an archive binge...

Let's start with Storm Over Whoomera. It begins when a bunch of thrill seekers arrive for a hunting expedition on the planet Whoomera (where the wildlife has a habit of hunting the hunters, usually with great success). Little do they expect they'll soon become embroiled in a major interstellar battle involving alien space pirates who... talk like pirates, due to watching too many old Earth movies. Some scenes are NSFW for nudity and near-nudity as well as a few disintegrations. Link to page 1.

Nightshade the Merry Widow has just about the most unconventional concept I know of in a webcomic. Co-created by the late Kishma Danielle, it's a collection of stories based on the planet Cyeatea (say-Tah) where all the inhabitants resemble nude, anthropomorphic insects and spiders. Only they're not quite what most of you would expect from that description... they're warm-blooded, technically mammalian (the boobs are a bit of a giveaway), and don't have hard carapaces or bug eyes. What they do have is a very dynamic society where relations between species revolve around the Great Game of non-lethal but hugely erotic predation. Obviously due to the sexual content the stories are highly NSFW in places, but in spite of what a few naysayers have tried to suggest, it's far from being wall to wall porn. There's a big archive of well over 700 pages on ComicFury, although a few were accidentally repeated in the early days. Link to page 1
